RE: PAPA-PEPPER : A STAND UP GUY - "EVERYONE CALLS ME 'MEMO'"
I was a little nervous to watch this one, I dabbled a bit in stand up comedy many years ago and I now stick to my witty humorisms. Stand up is another animal all together, but my experiences with it have helped me give great speeches, talks and introductions - put a mic in my hand and I can give a passable performance - call it stand up and I'll probably be booed off the stage.
Ok - so I did watch it....And I laughed multiple times! This was funny Papa Pepper! You took a solid observation, batted it around a bit, took it to a silly extreme (with the police officer) and brought it home to you personally with your user name.
Your intro was weak (I could feel your feelings!) and slow, tighten that baby up! But once you got into what was funny, you were rolling with it!
Specifically, after the chair (0:22), which was humorous - it was 1:18 before you had another joke - and with that joke I understood where you were taking me - I started having fun with you! Between those two times I have very little idea what you are talking about.
So - get to the point faster! Its probably hard because you want to do an intro like from the garden but my advice - do something like this -
Papa - Pepper here, guys, have you ever met a Memo? I mean, my kids have a grandfater, they call him Grandpa, not bobo or dingo ....etc
And roll from there. I feel like if you tighten your intros way up you'll really like the results.
Sure, thanks. Honestly I had no clue what I was doing and didn't really research it, I just figured that I'd try something different and see what happened.
Keep rolling with this life my friend!
